oh man, I can imagine the shelf presence of that Sazabi! woooh! Will try and cop, depending on the price.
I'll be getting the Justice Gundam.
I think I will be passing on the Hi-Nu, I prefer the NU gundam + I got the Metal structure - let's see some pics.

A guy on one of the Japanese boards said that his inside source said it will go on sale in December and cost $2,000. This is unverified, so take it for what it's worth. I figured it would be at least that due to the size of the thing.

Though, if I had to pick one, it's the Wasabi all night, day, week, month, and year. Holy momma. $2000 USD though. Geebus Christmas.

I mean, the Nu plus both expansion packs had a MSRP of what, $1400 or so? $1600 if you double funnels. Sazabi is probably at least $1800 given the size and basically comes with everything... Except maybe the long rifle. That'll come with the Zeon Engineers set.... I shudder at what the scalper prices will look like... |

This tip might come a couple years too late, but for those that is fortunate enough to be able to do the Double Fin Funnels on Nu's back, the instructions only teach you how to put on the set of 6 on Nu's left securely, to use all the mini side clips on each Fin Funnel, going on the diecast rack follow the order of Fin Funnel no.1, then no.2, then no.3....until no.6. HOWEVER, following the same sequence for the other side is not gonna work well, either you have to risk scratching the sides with the mini side clips getting in the way, or you end up not using them and have an overall less secure Fin Funnel set on Nu's right. The trick is, for the right side, you go by reversed order, starting with Fin Funnel no.6 on the far right, then no.5, then no.4, 3, 2, and 1. This way, you can still easily utilize the mini side clips without struggling lining up the Funnels and get them scratched up by the extruding clips. Took me a while to figure it out, since people don't necessary show that in video reviews, or just dismiss the usage of those mini side clips for convenience (but less secure Funnels attachment). Hope that helps, even if it is two years late.
Thanks to the announcement of the Sazabi release, I finally opened my Nu.

While I am not familiar with this GGStudio set, I don't see the point of getting them when you already have two. Heck, even if I have none, I would`t buy some $350 bootleg that cost more than the legit funnels to put on my $1000+ premium Gundam. Nu Gundam will be reissued next year. So it is likely the Fin Funnels will be as well. I wouldn't buy those if I were you, regardless its quality being good or bad. |

I don't know if Sazabi will get reissued years down the road though, it depends.  |

Thanks for the info! That gives hope to a Sazabi re-release in a couple of years. Will probably cost about $6k by that point with inflation. |

Is it me or the fin funnels for the metal structure does not lock on the metal attachments? How the heck do you lock the funnel to the metal attachment? Keeps falling
